Thank you for the rec's. Love your review on the Satin Audio Griffin and Chimera. Very informative and really liked the comparisons with EA Ares II. Learned quite a bit as a newbie. I think they are pretty light and thin too based on your review? Curious about your thoughts on Satin Audio ones vs FiR Audio and PlusSound X series if possible.
Thanks! Satin Audio cables were indeed thin and light, but the FiR Audio and PlusSound ones are even more so; the former because of smaller conductors and the latter because they have half the wire count. I'll have a review of FiR Audio's SPC cable coming soon with very brief, passing comparisons against the Satin Audio Griffin. One thing to note is that FiR Audio's insulation is a tad more chalky/rubbery, so it won't necessarily feel as smooth as the Satin Audio or PlusSound cables. But again, the trade-off is in the FiR Audio cable's lower price point and lighter ergonomics. I don't know what PlusSound's X cables sound like myself, so I'd direct you towards @Wyville's reviews of those cables. This one's for the GPC version: https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/plussound-x-series-iem-cable.21922/reviews#review-22112
